Welcome to "The Radio Art Hour," a show where art is not just on the radio, but is the radio. "The Radio Art Hour" draws from the Wave Farm Broadcast Radio Art Archive, an online resource that aims to identify, coalesce, and celebrate historical and contemporary international radio artworks made by artists around the world, created specifically for terrestrial AM/FM broadcast, whether it be via commercial, public, community, or independent transmission. Come on a journey with us as radio artists explore broadcast radio space through poetic resuscitations and playful celebrations/subversions of the complex relationship between senders and receivers in this hour of radio about radio as an art form. "The Radio Art Hour" features introductions from Philip Grant and Tom Roe, and from Wave Farm Radio Art Fellows Karen Werner, Andy Stuhl, and Jess Speer. The Conet Project's recordings of numbers radio stations serve as interstitial sounds. Go to wavefarm.org for more information about "The Radio Art Hour" and Wave Farm's Radio Art Archive.
Produced by Andy Stuhl. In February 2022, Wave Farms Radio Deprogramming workshop convened a diverse, international group of media artists and radio practitioners around a proposition to critically examine and creatively invert the usual routines that structure the radio medium. Christof Migones Radio Naked provided a central inspiration for the workshop, which culminated with participants drafting short deprogramming prompts and then producing audio interpretations of each others prompts. This hour-long broadcast piece gathers all 29 of these short sound works, intermixed with the audio versions of Radio Nakeds 22 prompts (in addition to Migone, contributors to these include Jennifer Cherniak, Amos Latteier, Chris Myhr, and Gintas Tirillis). The recording also includes a series of excerpts from the Radio Deprogramming listening syllabus, featuring sound from John Cage and Morton Feldman, Shelley Pope, Sherre DeLys and Rick Moody with John Lurie, and Anna Friz and Emmanuel Madan; as well as a collaborative sound collage experiment that workshop participant Justin Maiman subsequently produced for his show on WGXC, the Ginger Radio Hour. It includes an introduction from Andy Stuhl, Wave Farms 2021-2022 Radio Artist Fellow. Other contributors to the workshops audio prompts include Melike Ceylan, Kirsten Chervinsky, Nicolas Montgermont, Matthew Flores, Russell Gendron, Justin Maiman, Ricardo Iamuuri Robinson, Ed Woodham, Andrew Madey, Celeste Oram, Stephen Bradley, Sadie Couture, Stacey Copeland, Jin Zhu, Michelle OConnor, and Melissa Sarris.
